Foreboding military alliance between former Soviet nation (Belarus) and Iran?

Fits in with an ongoing thread–again, not in any of the US papers…

This is another great demonstration of the power of RSS and feed readers as an information UI. I am sure this persistent disconnect in US and foreign press is not a new thing, but it is glaringly obvious as I diversify my news sources in my reader.

Alliances like this, relative to ongoing US actions, should be considered in our future foreign policy and certainly our public perception of the effectiveness of current foreign policy.

Unfortunately, I am sure most of our political leaders couldn’t spell RSS and probably don’t use feeds as an efficient way to aggregate, consume, and synthesize public information.
